Nicotra's Ballroom was completely transformed into a sparkling winter wonderland on Jan. 13, much to the delight of attendees, who feasted on a cocktail hour and gourmet sit down dinner, before bidding on luxury silent auction items, including his and her's Rolex watches.

Carl V. Bini Chairman and President Massimo DiDonna recapped the foundation's work, and also identified the focus for 2018, which will be to address food allergies among children on Staten Island.

According to BiniFund.org, The Carl V. Bini Memorial Fund has opened a free community resource center with a mission of bridging the gap between addiction and recovery for addicts and their families.

Carl's House mission is to form strategic alliances with treatment facilities both in New York and on the national level, in order to quickly and appropriately place those seeking help into the right programs for them.
